To even think someone gets that much per yard gained...for example, even though LeBron James plays 82 games (ignoring playoffs), he makes $365,200 per game! So yeah, we as fans can complain when we see lack of effort.
Damn. That's over 10k per minute, assuming he plays 36 minutes for 82 games.
As for Eifert, I'm meh on it. If he's healthy, it's great.
If not, we still had to keep another $8 million clear under the cap just in case he hit the incentives, probably on top of the $10 million we traditionally hold back.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
